Tuttosport: Torino ready to test Milan’s resolve with €15m bid for young midfielder

By Oliver Fisher -

Torino will try and keep Tommaso Pobega beyond the expiry of his loan spell at the end of the season and they have an offer ready, a report claims.

Tuttosport (via MilanNews) report that with the €11m that Torino will save from not buying Josip Brekalo – who told the management that he does not want to stay beyond his loan spell – Torino could thus have the liquidity to make a serious attempt to sign Pobega.

The paper even claim that Urbano Cairo and the Granata management could put €15m on the table, a figure that they hope will make Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara at least sit down at the negotiating table.

Given he is a youth academy product it would be a pure capital gain which gives further room for manoeuvre on the market, but the last word will belong to head coach Stefano Pioli and who he wants in his squad.

  1. No, buying back up for tonali Will cost more than 15m euro. Just give pobega chance to compete with tonali or new DMF. Selling pobega would be stupid idea. I prefer sell one our young striker like nasti,Colombo,roback,lazetic rather than pobega

    1. Pobega is not good enough to fit in this Milan team, trust me. If that 15m is truly on the table, I will advice we grab it with both hands. I have watch him on multiple ok, he’s ok, but nothing special. He is in the realm of christante, pessina and locateli. Good, but not exceptional like Tonali or Leao

      1. Finally someone with some sense! Pobega isn’t that good. He’s only good because fans are bitter that Kessie is leaving and he sort of fits in the same role as him so they overrate him. He’s precisely like Cristante, not bad but not great. He’s no Kessie or Tonali that’s for sure. But $15m is a bit too small though. 20-25 sounds about right as he still young and may turn a corner

  3. Why most of the young player from club like sassuolo, club brugge, etc. cost above 30mil euro, while young player from milan cost less than 15mil.????? Stupid market
